It is a distinct pleasure to introduce you to BIRTHFIT Colorado. At Zenith Chiropractic, we believe that awareness leads to opportunity, and BIRTHFIT encapsulates this principle for expecting and postpartum moms. Let's dive into the 5 W's (who, what, when, where, and why) of BIRTHFIT Colorado.
WHO:
BIRTHFIT started as a grassroots effort and has quickly grown to a national movement. While there are affiliates all over the United States and Spain, Colorado Springs is home to BIRTHFIT Colorado - the first affiliate in the Centennial State. Melissa Hemphill is the powerhouse behind BIRTHFIT Colorado and is currently teaching the Post Partum series. Check out her blog here to learn more.
It is our great pleasure to be a resource concerning the chiropractic component of BIRTHFIT Colorado.
WHAT:
BIRTHFIT is a self-described movement with a passion for supporting both expecting and postpartum moms. The foundation of the BIRTHFIT model is empowerment through the four pillars:
- Fitness
- Nutrition
- Chiropractic
- Mindset
Each of these pillars are an integral part of healthy pregnancy and birth, and serve as the context for each educational series. There are a number of ways to engage with BIRTHFIT, including Classes and Workshops, online coaching and consulting, online resources, and the BIRTHFIT podcast. Our Colorado community is fortunate to have on site workshops that are hosted at Crossfit Pandora's Box here in Colorado Springs.

Pregnancy and childbirth is perhaps the most demanding season of life for women. All too often this process is shrouded in fear and confusion leaving many women feeling powerless.

BIRTHFIT Colorado is passionate about creating a team to support the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of this unique time in life. While nobody is guaranteed the perfect pregnancy or birth experience, the BIRTHFIT perspective appreciates how the body intelligently adapts to it's environment.
